Skim coating in Steinhauer for a flat, paint-ready finish

Rough, textured or patched Steinhauer walls betray every flaw once light hits them — and fresh paint only amplifies it. In Steinhauer we skim coat walls and ceilings to a flat, paint-ready surface, whether that is a full Level 5 finish before premium paint or flattening dated texture before a refresh. Steinhauer is an older Whitemud community where settling cracks, aging texture and the occasional plaster repair come up, so the work here is usually settling cracks, aging stipple and the odd plaster repair. We cover Steinhauer, Aspen Gardens, Bearspaw, Blue Quill and Whitemud, 7 days a week.

Level 5 skim coating in Steinhauer

When a Level 5 finish is worth it

A Level 5 finish — a full skim coat over the entire surface — is worth it in Steinhauer where there is critical light, high-gloss or dark paint, or a feature wall that will show every imperfection. It is the highest drywall finish level and the one that holds up under raking light.

Skimming over existing texture

In Steinhauer homes with stipple ceilings and the occasional skim-over of dated texture, we can skim straight over the existing texture to bring a wall or ceiling back to flat, rather than tearing it out. For Steinhauer walls it is faster, cleaner and usually better value than replacement.
